Egypt is mainly known for its ancient structures, such as the Great Sphinx and the pyramids. However this country is also one of the most populated countries in Africa and is important in the Muslim world. Most of Egypt's population lives near the Nile River, which is the only thing keeping Egypt from being total desert. This country has a very diverse economy and is a republic.
